Here’s why osteoporosis is known as the silent thief

You're never too young to learn tai chi, which is a good example of a flexibility exercise that can help prevent injury as one ages.

The silent thief – this is the nickname given to osteoporosis, a disease that lies low and shows no symptoms... until someone who has it falls and suffers a broken or fractured bone.

Osteoporosis causes weak and brittle bones, due to a loss of bone mineral density. For individuals with osteoporosis, a simple fall may prove to have serious consequences.
